Dylan Dreiling and Christian Moore led the University of Tennessee to their first College World Series title with a 6-5 win over Texas A&M in Game 3. Moore got the Volunteers off to a strong start with a solo homer, while Dreiling’s two-run homer in the seventh inning secured the victory. Dreiling was named the Tournament Most Outstanding Player for his exceptional performance throughout the series, hitting home runs in all three Finals games. Moore also made a significant impact, becoming the first player in 68 years to hit for the cycle in the College World Series.
Despite Texas A&M’s efforts to keep the game close, Tennessee held onto their lead and clinched the championship. The Aggies were missing top prospect Braden Montgomery due to an injury, contributing to their defeat. Both teams put up a tough fight, with key plays from Gavin Grahovac and others, but the Volunteers ultimately emerged victorious.
With this historic win, Tennessee celebrated their first-ever College World Series title, ending a 73-year drought. The players, including Dreiling and Moore, showcased their talent and teamwork on the national stage, capturing the hearts of fans and securing their place in school history. As the players now turn their focus to the MLB Draft, they carry the momentum of their championship win into this next chapter of their baseball careers.
